Basic internship - requirements and assistance in finding a job

The bachelor's degree program in mechanical engineering requires a basic internship of at least six weeks, which should preferably be completed before the start of the program. It can be completed in several separate periods. The certification of the completed basic internship must be submitted at the beginning of the main course of study.
The number of working hours in the 6 weeks of the internship results from the company-specific weekly working hours in full-time employment. (Resolution of the Mechanical Engineering Examination Board of Oct. 2018)

  2. Machining processes e.g.: Turning, planing, grinding
  3. Chipless manufacturing processes e.g.: Straightening, bending, solid and sheet metal forming
  4. Primary forming processes e.g.: Observation of the casting process, production of pressed parts, plastic spraying
  5. Thermal joining / cutting processes e.g.: Welding processes, cutting technology
  6. Heat treatment of materials e.g.: Hardening, tempering
  7. Practical activities e.g.: Assembly, installation, maintenance
